CLEVELAND. 



The Market. 



The debutante season will begin this 

 month in Cleveland, to avoid such an 

 overcrowding of events as was the case 

 two years ago. Kaiserin roses are ex- 

 tremely scarce and White Killarney 

 roses are short-stemmed, which makes 

 the June wedding orders hard to fill. 

 There is plenty of good valley, maiden- 

 hair ferns and orchids. American 

 Beauty roses are a little off color, but 

 plentiful. June business is holding up 

 well and nobody seems discouraged. 



Various Notes. 



The Cleveland Florists' Club and 

 the Flower Club will hold a picnic 

 sometime in July. The same commit- 

 tee which so ably conducted the May 

 dance will have charge of the arrange- 

 ments for the picnic, and it is expected 

 that every florist in and about Cleve- 

 land will be on deck. 



Mrs. A. Lincoln Brown has an ex- 

 hibit at the Ideal Home show. While, 

 owing to the extreme heat, she is not 

 making an elaborate exhibit, she is 

 the only florist represented, and her 

 bridal table attracts a great deal of 

 attention. 



Otto C. Knoble has moved to his 

 country home for the summer. 



Several of the florists were guests of 

 Frank Friedley for a fishing party 

 along Rocky river on Saturday night, 

 June 3. They say the fish were biting 

 in fours, threes and a pair. . 



The Ohio Floral Co. and Knoble Broa 

 are closing at noon on Sundays during 

 June, July and August. C. D. F. 



Kankakee, HI. — Splear Bros., owners 

 of the Whittemore farm, east of town, 

 are building a greenhouse, 50x200, 

 which will be completed this summer. 

 Next winter they will grow lettuce for 

 the Chicago market and in the follow- 

 ing season they will grow carnations.
